Trial summary

We aim to compare three different radiation delivery techniques, namely three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT), intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and volumetric modulated radiation therapy (VMAT) in left-sided early breast cancer patients. Read more about this study

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groups in NCT05394194
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
3DCRT groupIn this plan, we will create plans using three dimensional conformal radiotherapy, evaluate organs at risk doses, dose homogeneity and planned target volume coverage. Then compare these parameters with the two other plans.
IMRT groupIn this plan, we will create plans using intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), evaluate organs at risk doses, dose homogeneity and planned target volume coverage. Then compare these parameters with the two other plans.
VMAT planIn this plan, we will create plans using volumetric modulated radiotherapy (VMAT), evaluate organs at risk doses, dose homogeneity and planned target volume coverage. Then compare these parameters with the two other plans.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Comparison of coverage of planned target volume(PTV) among the three plans.

    PTV coverage in dose is compared among the three plans.

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Comparison of doses to organs at risk among the three plans.

    mean dose of the heart, lung volume receiving 20Gy, esophageal doses will be compared among the three plans

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Comparison of target homogeneity among the three plans.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer, run by Sohag University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 May 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Alshaymaa Abdelghaffar, PhD (01006828975 ext. 002, alshimaaahmed@med.sohag.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Comparison of coverage of planned target volume(PTV) among the three plans. (time frame: 1 year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 May 2022.
